I love Danielle De Niese, and thought the dancing was lovely. Such nice bodies, pretty people, interesting movement; and happy music. I would love to see this whole production. Also must make a comment about the clear diction; could absolutely understand every word, which isn't often the case with opera sung in English. I personally thought the dancing absolutely added to the music and mood.
No entiendo por qué tanta ansia de perfección. La música de Haendel es entusiasta, el baile reproduce la música con igual alegría y el cuadro es armónico, pese a lo que podríamos considerar asincronías o asimetrías. No creo que haya una descripción más exacta del Locus Amoenus.
2. Chorus Oh, the pleasure of the plains! Happy nymphs and happy swains, Harmless, merry, free and gay, Dance and sport the hours away. For us the zephyr blows, For us distills the dew, For us unfolds the rose, And flow'rs display their hue. For us the winters rain, For us the summers shine, Spring swells for us the grain, And autumn bleeds the wine. Oh, the pleasure. . . da capo.
What horrible writhing bodies: I'm glad I did not have to pay to see this as I would have wanted my money back after suffering the irritation of those second rate fool 'dancers'!

Very intersting creation for such a
tradicional opera.
A contemporary
tendency of the
last decade, and
excellent once more.
It is the Royal Ballet!

2. Chorus
Oh, the pleasure of the plains!
Happy nymphs and happy swains,

Dance and sport the hours away.

For us unfolds the rose,
And flow'rs display their hue.
For us the winters rain,
For us the summers shine,
Spring swells for us the grain,
And autumn bleeds the wine.
Oh, the pleasure. . . da capo.
Ilgenioso.

Doesn't quite look like Baroque dance.
the dancing does nothing to enhance this
The dancing is not good and upsets the mood
The dancing is out of this world !!
What horrible writhing bodies: I'm glad I did not have to pay to see this as I would have wanted my money back after suffering the irritation of those second rate fool 'dancers'!
You poor thing! I hope one day you will recover from all the harm!
